Solar direct drive vaccine refrigerator and icepack freezer

VC60SDD

The VC60SDD is a Solar Direct Drive combined vaccine refrigerator and water pack freezer. With a vaccine storage capacity of 57 litres and a freezer capable of storing 23 x 0.6 litre fully frozen water packs, it is the perfect solution for small and mid-sized health facilities conducting outreach programmes. The VC60SDD has been independently verified to deliver 4 x 0.6L fully frozen water packs each day (2.4kg of ice), even at +43 °C ambient, making it easier to plan outreach activities.

Like all our SDD refrigerators, the VC60SDD utilises our optimised solar technology to offer the perfect balance of array size and autonomy, delivering exceptional reliability whatever the weather. Fully GAVI CCEOP compliant with the highest level of Grade A Freeze Protection and a +5 °C to +43 °C extended temperature operating range.

All Dulas refrigerators are supplied with an integrated Beyond ICE3 device fitted at no additional cost. Applying RTM technology is a simple way to improve the reliability of cold chain equipment, enhance maintenance and ensure fewer vaccines are spoiled. Subscription can be activated at purchase or switched on remotely at any point after commissioning the refrigerator.
